OFFICIAL Broncos sign Brenko Lee

In a like for like replacement for Xavier Coates, the Broncos have signed Storm and Maroons winger Brenko Lee on a 2 year deal starting in 2022. Lee, who can play wing or centre, has already advised his Storm team mates of his decision. He has not played a game yet this season due to injury.




Lee:

Coming to the Storm has been a life-changing experience mentally and physically. I nearly gave it away after the Titans told me it was best for us to part ways and go in a different direction. I hold no grudges against anyone. They finished last and some guys had to go.”

“If you told me I would have been in a grand final, I would have asked what you are smoking because I didn’t think it was possible. was close to pulling the pin completely. I nearly gave it away after the Titans told me it was best for us to part ways and go in a different direction. I hold no grudges against anyone. They finished last and some guys had to go.

Meh.....thought that Hynes was worth chasing hard.....perhaps he doesnt want to come here...?
Don’t know but I guess he’s off the table now (assuming he was on it)
Storm probably won’t play him in first grade now unless they are hit with injuries . Be good to get an early release for him but no way would storm do us any favours.

Oops 2nd sentence refers to Lee.
 
They can’t all be superstars
A good solid buy as long as we didn’t overpay for him
We don’t need brenko to be a match winner. All he needs to do it be solid in defence and give us some metre out of our own end in attack. Anything else is a bonus
 
His experience is what Kevvie bought him in for. He's played (and won) a GF. As well as been through the origin baptism of fire. He'll be great to have around the squad.
 
Bit concerned about his injuries this year (hamstring and then calf). However it looks like kevie is really looking to rebalance the team with a solid all round centre from a successful team that can sure up our edge defence and finish attacking plays.

He does have a nice pass, timing on him too which could mean our wingers see a bit more ball.
Not being nasty old mate but...it's shore up. I do agree that KW has identified weaknesses and is targeting exactly what he wants. I suppose he will definitely be announcing a new fullback soon or will he?
 
Well I didn't see this one coming but good stuff, we got our Opacic.

He had an excellent season last year and while he won't be a world beater, he is solid and he brings experience, a GF winner and an origin player (where he was more than admirable). He also wouldn't break the bank account and I love that once again, this was done entirely with no media fanfare.

I don't see what there isn't to like about this signing, very happy with it.
 
Ummmm......errrmmm.............well that's a bit of a let down on an up day.
 
So why do you think we're more likely to get the immature developing player and not the current version, the now version? Why would you think he'd suddenly lose his maturity and experience?

Because i think he did a job in a well oiled system at Melbourne. Its not his maturity and experience he will lose, he has that now so unless he gets a bad dose of amnesia its with him for life. Take him out of that system at Melbourne though and i've got a gut feeling he will revert back to the type of player he was. Love them or hate them, the Storm have a knack of turning very ordinary players into solid first graders, but not many play to the same level once they leave.
 
So this isn't yet official and I can't see any comments from anyone on it. Is this legit or made up?

Mmmm, fair enough. He went okay in game 3 of SOO which wasn't a Storm system and he didn't miss in defence, 12 from 12. I do understand the reasoning but I think KW probably identified what he needs. I wouldn't be surprised to learn KW called WB as WB had Brenko in camp and probably formed an opinion. He's definitely another, like Reynolds where we have to wait and see.

PS. Never write the word 'back' after the word 'revert'
 
think its a article in the cm from our mate badel

Right. So if it is from Badel, there is a REALLY good chance it is made up then and also a good chance there are absolutely no quotes whatsoever then.
 
To me this says that Brenko will play in the centres and Herbie to fullback, provided he can catch the footy he will be quite damaging
